Cobalt Blue Vintage Porcelain Vase with Golden Pheasants and Gilded Rim – 1980s, 13 cm

Deep cobalt blue with finely painted golden pheasants and a gilded rim: this slender porcelain vase from the 1980s is decorative and practical at once – for the dining table as well as a dresser.

Shape and Decoration

The gold motif glows against the dark blue and recalls Europe’s long fascination with Far Eastern imagery. With the right flower, the vase brings a slice of nature into the room – lovely in classic as well as Maximalist interiors. We also carry a similar piece with a pheasant motif in our shop.

Eisenstadt, the flea market. The slim vase stood in half-shadow, and still the golden pheasants found the light. Two birds walking through the same blue for forty years, never arriving. Perhaps the destination matters less than the bearing.
